I've been caring for children of all ages in childcare centers and as a nanny for 35 years. I also have 4 grown sons of my own including twins. I absolutely love children. I am a caring, patient, and attentive nanny/sitter who enjoys playing, teaching and being on the go. I have extensive knowledge of child development and age appropriate activities that help a child grow and develop. I focus on nurturing the whole child including social, emotional, physical, and cognitive abilities. I work hard to foster a sense of responsibility, manners, and respect and lead by example. I consider myself to be very reliable and dedicated. As a mom myself, I understand the desire to have someone care for your children as if they were their own. That is what I aim to provide. I am currently working full time Mon-Thur with a family and am seeking weekend date night jobs (Fri/Sat).

I had reached out to Trish on Sittercity.com based on her Profile when I was in need of a nanny for my 2 children (3yo & 5yo); to finish out the school year. Trish has been a DREAM...Anyone lucky enough to get her - KEEP HER! I have been using these sitter sites for some time now and you don't come across a TRISH very often! Trish is knowledgeable - she has been working with my 3yo on his potty training (and coaching me as well!). She is PASSIONATE about what she does; she is NOT a babysitter; She puts her whole heart into these kids, as if they were her own. She has brought preschool workbooks and worked with my 3yo on his colors, shapes & writing skills. She has planned science experiments to do with both my children, which they have loved. She always makes it a point to keep my children active and engaged; always planning activities both inside and outside of our home. She plays with them on their level; often sitting right beside them on the floor or crawling into their treehouse with them for story time or role playing... She even plays with our dogs in the backyard during nap times and strives to stay busy, helping out with house work or chores whenever possible; even when not required. Trish is Punctual, Responsible, Trustworthy, and the definition of what a true Nanny should be.

Hello! My name is Jenna , I am a very experienced and energetic babysitter with a passion for kids and helping those in need. I am currently training to be a paramedic. This allows me to have incredible skills in medical and can insure a safe environment for all children. I started babysitting when I was just 12 years old and have continued to babysit throughout the years as I am almost 21 years old now. I love being a babysitter because kids bring me joy and innocence that melts my heart. I am very skilled and experienced with all duties of childcare. Meal prep, shopping, picking up from school, cooking, insuring fun activities, changing diapers and much more. Please feel free to reach out and ask any questions!

I'm currently a paraprofessional at a CT high school, so I'll be available this summer and eager to work part time. I have 6 years of experience caring for children, including working as a party hostess, watching family members' kids, serving as a kiddie camp director, and my current role in education. I also have extensive experience with animals. Having worked at an animal sanctuary and a veterinary clinic, I'm happy to care for your pets too. My rate is $22-$35 per hour, reflecting my experience, CPR certification, college degree, and willingness to assist with pets. I'm looking to work Monday through Thursday part time.

I’m a 20-year-old college student home for winter break until January 26. I have a lot of experience caring for kids of all ages. I’ve been babysitting since I was 16 and grew up helping care for my four younger sisters. This past summer, I worked at YMCA Camp Ingersoll, supervising groups of children ages 4–13. During the school year, I worked at Kids Klub in Rhode Island, where I tutored and cared for elementary students before and after school. I absolutely adored both these jobs and working with kids! I’m Red Cross CPR and First Aid certified, responsible, patient, and great with both kids and pets.
